That looks an aweful lot like my car in it current build state. I'm using a '69 Camaro front spoiler, '78 Camaro rear spoiler(middle section), a 'mid '80s Camaro rear sway bar, Addco front sway bar, KYB's(may go Bilstien) and very low. Lots more to come...

Cool. How good does the Camaro front spoiler fit? I had an old busted up mustang front spoiler but the wife saw fit to throw it in with the recycling before I could try it..lol. |

It was a pain to twist/bend to fit the valance, I had to flatten the valance to the bottom of the core support. I used a piece of .5" x 1.5" alum angle to keep the top of the spoiler level. I still need to cover the ends up with something. I'll try to get some pics. I haven't tried to fit the rear yet but I'm sure it will take finesse too. I will be cutting down the height to about 3.5" and using threaded J-hooks to secure it. Still would like to fab some sort of side skirts 1.5" front to 2.5" rear to cover up the rocker seam and give it an over all lower look.

I'm working on a new front spoiler on my '64 too, but quite different... Here's what I cobbled up last June. This got me about 10% increase in hwy mileage. Untested on track yet. Next generation coming soon. http://www.flickr.com/photos/16910097@N ... 013976355/ Lou |

Thanks for the input guys. I am just playing around with ideas for now. I tend to like 'different' stuff and the short track stock car look is not too common. |

I think if you would keep going with that theme and extend the spoiler to the edges of the front tire track width you will yeild better results. I like it! Keep up the good work! Greg |

Quote: Yep and maybe also "connect" the edges of those extensions backwards to fill in the void all the way to the wheel opening (where the Factory roll Pan Swoops into the center of the car) |
